Textile factory canteen.

Chu Mengxi found a seat and sat down.

Two or three female workers in Textile Room No. 3 who were familiar with Chu Meng came over and sat down with Chu Mengxi.

Several people were chatting while eating.

Chu Mengxi didn't say much. She opened the aluminum lunch box, which contained two cold steamed buns and a hard-looking corn tortilla.

They were all made of pure stick noodles and couldn't be swallowed dry, so she ate them with hot water and struggled.

There wasn't even pickles in her lunch box.

On the other hand, the female worker next to her had a lunch box filled with cornmeal mixed with a lot of white flour. The texture was much better than steamed buns, and it tasted good. It tasted delicious with radish and pickles fried in lard.

There are even those with good conditions who eat white-flour steamed buns made from fine grains, paired with greasy bacon.

In this comparison, Chu Mengxi simply ate bran-pharyngeal vegetables.

The female worker next to her saw how pitiful Chu Mengxi was and gave her some pickles.

No matter how much, there is none.

These days, productivity is still relatively backward. Corn cultivation is large and cheap, while wheat cultivation is small and expensive. Therefore, the living conditions are relatively ordinary, with coarse grains such as cornmeal and sweet potatoes as the staple food. Occasionally, you can have a luxury and eat refined grains..

But Chu Mengxi eats cold, hard and hard-to-swallow steamed buns every day.

Everyone knew that her husband was a well-known street kid in Shangrong Village. He was idle all day long and ignored his wife and daughter, which was why Chu Mengxi's life was so difficult.

Seeing this scene, Li Xia's heart seemed to be pinched tightly by something at the door, and it hurt very much.

His legs felt like they were filled with lead and he could no longer move forward.

For a moment, he had no face to face Chu Mengxi. at this time.

Naituanzi Duoduo tugged at the corner of Li Xia's clothes, pointed her little finger at the cafeteria, and said excitedly:

"Dad, I saw mom. She's inside. Let's go find her.~!"

Nuannuan's big eyes also lit up. She waved her hand and said,"Daddy, I saw Mommy too!"

Li Xia suddenly felt a little embarrassed. At this moment, he chose to escape, but he actually didn't dare to face it.

After calming down, Li Xia knelt down, handed the two lunch boxes in the net bag to Duoduo, and said:

"Dad is tired from walking. You two are responsible for delivering food to mom. Dad will take a rest at the door, okay?"

"OK!"

"Dad, sit down, Nuannuan and I will go and see you off!"

The two little guys didn't think much. They thought Li Xia was really tired from walking, so they took the net bag and hugged it in their arms.

Li Xia found a place to sit under the shade of a tree and stared at the mottled tree shadows. , with mixed feelings.

As soon as the two cute breast dumplings entered the canteen, they attracted everyone's attention and stared sideways.

"Children, who are you looking for?"

"Let’s find Mom~!"

"Who is your mother?"

"Here~! Mom is there!"

Nuan Nuan stretched out her hand, and everyone looked in the direction of Chu Mengxi.

At this time, people at Chu Mengxi's table also noticed the movement of the two little guys and looked over.

Chu Mengxi When I saw two small breast dumplings, I was stunned for a moment, then I was surprised and happy.

"Duoduo! Nuannuan! Why are you here?"

"Did Grandma Wang next door send you here?"

Chu Mengxi knelt down and hugged the two milk dumplings into her arms. After a while, she let go.

She planned to finish the meal and take advantage of some free time to go back and make something to eat for the two milk dumplings.

Unexpectedly , they actually came here

"It’s not Grandma Wang, it’s Dad who brought us here"

"Yes, mom, we came here with dad. He was tired from walking and rested at the door."

Chu Mengxi's delicate body trembled.

Dad?

That man.

Chu Mengxi frowned.

She looked at the door, but did not see the figure of the man.

The day before yesterday, the man took the ten yuan he had saved so hard. The money was snatched away and squandered, and she cried bitterly all night.

She thought about using the money to buy some rice, noodles and meat to replenish the bodies of the two little ones, and how thin they had become.

Never thought... that time, it was the pressure The last straw that broke Chu Mengxi.

This marriage must be divorced.

Life was really unbearable. She was stunned.

Duoduo raised the lunch box in her arms and said:

"Mom, we have brought you food. We have all eaten. Please eat quickly."

"Mom, there are fish and duck eggs in it, so delicious!"

Food?

Fish and eggs?

Did that person cook it?

Chu Mengxi immediately shook off the idea. From the time she got married to now, she had never seen that person cook once.

Not to mention, he would give the food away. Come here and give it to yourself.

Absolutely impossible!

However, the sound of Duoduo came to my ears.

"Mom, sit down and eat quickly. Dad made this. It’s delicious!"

Ah?!

Did he really do it?

Chu Mengxi was stunned and doubtful, and brought the two milk dumplings to her seat.

Several female workers moved away and let the two little guys sit next to their mother, one on the left and one on the right.

"You two little guys, have you eaten?"

"Huh? Xiaoxi, what's in those two lunch boxes of yours?"

"Your mother must be feeling sorry for you because you eat steamed buns every day, so she brought you food!"

Several female workers were discussing while nibbling the food in their hands.

Naturally, they would not think of Li Xia.

A selfish street kid would bring food to Chu Mengxi? It's a fantasy! Nuan Nuan, a little dumpling with breasts, but He shook his hands desperately and hurriedly explained:

"It’s not a gift from grandma, it’s a gift from daddy, it’s daddy!"

Huh?!

Several female workers were startled, with expressions of disbelief on their faces. Did that street boy really bring food to his wife?

The sun came out in the west!

No, no!

No, it's impossible!

There must be nothing in the lunch box. Good stuff!

Yes, maybe it’s bran vegetables inside!

Several female workers thought so.

Chu Mengxi hesitated for a moment and opened the lunch box. As soon as the lid was opened, before she could see the food inside clearly, a strong aroma suddenly hit her. It popped up.

Although the cafeteria is large, it is very crowded.

The strong fragrance spreads quickly.

Everyone sniffed and looked over at Chu Mengxi!

The lid was fully opened, and there was a strip of food lying in the lunch box. A complete braised crucian carp.

It weighs about seven or eight taels.

It is bright in color and the fish meat is rich in aroma.

Just by looking at the appearance of the braised fish, you can tell that the taste is not bad.

There was a commotion around.

"Wow! Such a big braised fish!"

"Tsk tsk! What conditions are these!"

"This braised fish is so delicious. Which chef made it?"

……

Several female workers around Chu Mengxi couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Be good!

If it’s not the New Year or the festival, this braised fish is on the way!

Is he really that street kid?

How is this possible?

Chu Mengxi also couldn't believe her eyes.

Her beautiful eyes opened wide, and a brief blank moment passed through her head.

"Mom, quick time, very good time. Nuan

Nuan watched anxiously and urged Chu Mengxi.

Chu Mengxi came back to her senses, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth.

The tender and firm fish tasted wonderful when chewed in her mouth..

It's really... delicious.

Chu Mengxi is also sure of one thing.

This fish is definitely not made by her mother, because she knows her mother's cooking skills from snack to adult. Her mother's dishes, she You can taste it.

Could it be that... was it really made by that man?

Can he cook?

And, the cooking is so delicious?

Chu Mengxi felt a little unreal.

She just ate one chopstick and then put the fish between two They ate small milk dumplings.

But the two little guys shook their heads at the same time, and then touched their bellies.

"Mom, we are full, you eat!"

"Mom, we ate a lot of fish and fried eggs, so we were full."

Chu Mengxi was stunned. Are they all full?

She opened another lunch box.

Inside were two plump and golden fried eggs.

The same.

A rich aroma wafted out!

Everyone was not calm anymore!

What conditions are these? Ah!

A braised fish!

Two big fried eggs!

Chinese New Year?
